Chapter 16 The Protagonist's Halo
011's hair stood on end when he thought of this.
He almost forgot about this matter, because the plot of this novel follows the protagonist, and since the protagonist was not there, no one knew what happened in the training ground.
Then it would be dangerous for the host to go in, right?
If the host dies, can his mission still be completed?
011 suddenly felt that the situation had become serious. Since the Lord God had not responded to the last incident, he took it as the Lord God's tacit approval, and his mind suddenly became active.
[Or else, find a way to secretly leak it.] The red panda covered its ears in confusion. After being suppressed, it bounced up very cutely, swaying left and right in the air. [But I don't know what will happen. Can humans really find out?]
011 encountered the biggest challenge.
He flew back to the host's side, and when a warm hand touched his head, he transformed into a pile of cat cakes. [Host, what will happen if you don't take the grading assessment?]
011 was worried that he might change the plot, so he put his chin in his hand and thought hard, but ended up failing.
"You will be eliminated because of a score of 0, but there has been no precedent for this." Lu Tai recalled the information he had looked up. Most people would go in and get a "hard work point" even if they were sick.
After all, most of the students in the school are gifted children who have been brought up with elite education, and it would be too embarrassing for them to be eliminated.
Thinking of this, Lu Tai touched the red panda's head again and asked softly, "Yaoyao, if I die and you can find another binder, then it's okay for me to go in. But if there's no way to bind anyone else, I'll listen to you."
He was rescued by the red panda, so it is naturally the other party's freedom to use him however they want.
[I don't know if I can bind either. Host, please don't die, woooo.] 011 thought about his year-end bonus, the legendary 100 million points. [If the protagonist were here, maybe I could survive by clinging to him, but the protagonist isn't here this time.]
That's why the red panda looks so conflicted.
After all, the protagonist is not here, so this accident is a dead end set for other supporting characters.
Thinking of this, he straightened up slightly, holding his tail and making up his mind, [Otherwise, I've secretly made an agreement with the protagonist, he will definitely be able to handle this matter!]
As he said this, 011 quickly jumped up and rushed towards the corner where the protagonist was.
He was thinking about how to pass the message on, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of his computer screen. The little panda's eyes were slightly wide open and his mouth was so wide that an egg could be stuffed into it.
[The protagonist actually refused and decided to be an invigilator. How did this change the plot?] 011 confirmed again that this was indeed the message the protagonist sent to his father.
But it's good news after all. The world consciousness can't just let the protagonist die and the world collapse because of this.
The little panda felt a little relieved. The formal assessment would be in a few days, and he had to think carefully about what to do. [Otherwise, he might as well do as he did with Qin Buyang and secretly slip a note to Fran...]
He said this and floated towards the host.
Therefore, he did not notice that the protagonist who was busy working behind him suddenly raised his head and looked in his direction.
"Is this an illusion?" Fran tapped the table with his fingertips. He suddenly felt something furry flying past his jaw.
Could it be a dandelion that floated in?
He rubbed his chin with his ivory fingertips, concealing his doubts and about to take a bite, but he found that a small amount of orange stuff suddenly appeared on the steamed prawns with matsutake mushrooms that he had specially selected.
It's a carrot.
Fran is rarely picky about food, but she doesn't like the strange taste of carrots.
So whose prank was this? Thinking of this, he turned his gaze and looked around, only to find an unexpected figure in the crowd.
The tall young man with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a white hospital uniform, looked at this direction with a gentle expression, and raised his lips slightly as if he saw something interesting.
"Gallier?" Fran didn't expect him to come. Although this guy likes socializing, he doesn't like useless socializing.
The orientation party was just a useless social event for him.
Following Galliard's gaze, Fran's eyes fell on the Nanxing shrimp with carrots on the plate. He pursed his thin lips slightly and frowned subconsciously.
Was it him who did it?
This wealthy only son still has a childlike heart.
Fran picked up the knife and fork. He couldn't do something as rude as putting things back, and he didn't like to waste things, so he removed the carrot from the top and began to eat elegantly.
And Galliard almost laughed out loud as he watched this scene.
That guy really surprised him. He thought he would see some fun tonight, but he was a step too late. "But it's quite rare to see Fran eating something that tastes like carrots."
Except for a few people in the upper circle who have a good relationship with each other since childhood, the rest are all ambitious.
They are all waiting to see each other's jokes.
Unfortunately, he arrived a step too late and didn't see the grand occasion.
Although he didn't know what the boy's purpose was in causing these ridiculous incidents, Galliard was still happy to see it happen.
"Now it seems that he has set his sights on Fran... But, he shouldn't target me in the future, right?" Galliard suddenly remembered this.
He recalled his family where the father was loving and the son was filial, and silently took back what he said. He just hoped that these guys in the family would not cause trouble and embarrass him like Fran.
Galliard gloated.
After laughing at poor Fran and Qin Buyang, he suddenly thought of some of the things he had just heard from those conversations. It seemed that something unexpected was going to happen in this assessment.
Do you want to go and see it together?
…
The welcome party ended quietly. It was so awkward that most people left after staying for a short time.
Soon, what happened here about Fran was posted on the campus forum and was discussed crazily. Another thing discussed was that not only was Fran the invigilator of this assessment, but Galliard would also participate.
You have to know that these two are usually elusive figures who can only be seen during the first few days of school.
Many passionate young people want to compete with them.
011 hacked into the website and found out about this. Since he knew in advance that the protagonist would participate, he was not so surprised that Galliard would participate, and was still very happy.
"We now have two safeguards. The world consciousness will definitely not let them die in there." The red panda clenched its paw into a fist in affirmation.
Lu Tai had been in the training grounds for the past few days, and now that he had some free time, he just wanted to bury himself in the fur and cuddle with the little panda, so when he heard this, he just lowered his eyelashes and nodded.
011 felt a little itchy, and with a smile, she nudged him with her paw, "Host, you really are like a little baby, so clingy!"
"Yes, Yaoyao is so cute." Lu Tai closed his eyes to hide the expression on his face. After listening to the red panda's description, he was not sure if he could get out alive this time.
He wanted to spend more time with the red panda.
011 had no idea what the host was thinking. As a generous little panda, he thought it was okay to be touched. [Host, be good. I'm going to sleep for a while.]
Every movement of the host made him feel a little itchy.
"Okay." Lu Tai was thinking about the 10,000 points and decided to help the red panda fix the BUG as soon as he had enough.
Otherwise he would be worried if I kept sleeping.
Looking at the little panda in his arms, Lu Tai, who had been nervous for several days, gradually relaxed unconsciously, and a dull sleepiness swept over his entire brain.
He hugged the little panda tightly and gradually closed his eyes.
…
At the same time in the office building, Fran brought the information to the dean's office on the top floor.
He knocked three times and got a response before entering. He greeted the middle-aged woman sitting in the chair, who looked dignified but not angry. "Hello, Dean Su. I texted you yesterday. I'm here for the assessment in three days."
Fran put down the information in his hand.
He is a cautious person. Although he has not found any clues in the past few days and the school has not detected anything wrong, he still wants to suggest postponing the assessment for the time being.
Although I only believed that voice 40% or 50%, I couldn't take it lightly.
Otherwise it will bring a huge blow to the military academy.
Not only is the school facing devastated parents, but it also faces accusations of "failure to supervise" from higher-ups, as well as the already panicked people of the Morse galaxy.
If this really happened, the consequences would be unimaginable for them.
Isn't that exactly what those lunatics who crave chaos are looking forward to?
Fran was about to say something when he saw Dean Su suddenly glance at the closed door behind him. He then picked up the stack of documents and placed them beside him. "I understand this matter. I'll have the other department heads contact the military to discuss this matter."
——
011 knew nothing about this.
During the host's training, he secretly passed the news that the assessment would be dangerous to the protagonist. He originally thought that the military academy would cancel it directly after knowing the news, but unexpectedly, the assessment continued as normal.
Today is the last day of training, and the little panda is a little worried about tomorrow's assessment.
Lu Tai saw his emotions and touched his large orange ears, which had become airplane ears due to nervousness. "It will be fine. Looking at the list, Fran and Gallier are both invigilators for this exam."
Since the protagonists are all there, the plot will definitely not be a dead end as the red panda said.
"It doesn't matter! We've earned some points anyway. If anything goes wrong, we can just run away!" 011 sat on the host's shoulder and looked at the cadets in the training ground who were completely oblivious to everything going on.
He has not only led the protagonists in the past, but also the male and female supporting roles, vicious cannon fodder, and passers-by.
This kind of host does not have the halo of the protagonist and can be easily killed by the plot if he is not careful. The little panda is not sure whether the villain is like this. After all, the villain's plot is second only to that of the protagonist group.
But the world is now surprisingly unstable, and he doesn't know whether the world consciousness will "commit suicide."
Facing death, Lu Tai remained calm. He only frowned at the red panda's dejected look, sighed, and pinched his paw pads. "I'll do my best not to embarrass you."
[I believe in you, host.] 011 shook his tail.
"Last time I said I would take you to buy a doll. How about we go and see it after the training is over?" Lu Tai knew that the red panda was easily nervous and that he was easily distracted.
As he said this, he turned on the computer and displayed a virtual screen full of dolls in front of the red panda.
011's attention was truly captivated, and his ears, which had been lying down, perked up excitedly. "There's even a claw machine in here! I'm going to grab 100!"
The little panda looked at the cute plush dolls on the virtual screen and wanted to take them all home.
"Okay, catch a hundred." Lu Tai saw that 011's fluffy little face was finally no longer frowning, so he felt a little relieved and walked towards the empty space in the training ground.
For someone with C+ mental strength like him, training mental awareness is not as good as training reaction ability.
Lu Tai did not touch the conveyor next to him, but came to the separated training ground and pressed the red button. After a while, a group of humanoid machines appeared in front of him.
He was about to close the hatch when he looked at his sparring partner. Suddenly, he heard a tentative voice, "Hello, may I join you in this sparring?"
The voice of the visitor was unfamiliar.
011, who was originally searching for the location of a nearby dollhouse, floated up curiously and looked back, and found that it was a young boy with three characters "NPC" on his head. His hair and skin were extremely pale, and it seemed that he had some genetic disease.
[Is this Saenz syndrome? Can he withstand high-intensity training if he looks so fragile?] 011 looked at his skin, which was covered with a red rash when exposed to the sun.
At the same time, it’s a bit strange. Haven’t we developed a lotion that can completely block ultraviolet rays?
Judging from the boy's shoes, it doesn't seem like the family can't afford these things. If Saenz syndrome is not properly taken care of, it may eventually worsen due to infection and death.
Lu Tai had also thought of this. He wasn't one for easy conversation, so his tone was calm and polite. However, because of the red panda's presence, he still explained a few more words. "I'll be done with it in two hours. If you're in a hurry, you can go to the training room in Hall A first."
Although he kept making a fuss about doing bad things, he knew that red pandas liked kind and pitiful people.
"Sorry, all seven gyms are occupied. I, I haven't trained for several days..." The pale boy clenched his fists and looked outside the cabin as if he was afraid of something.
He was obviously a little scared, but when he saw Lu Tai about to close the hatch, he quickly pleaded, "Please let me in with you, they're coming after us!"
When he said this, he seemed to be extremely frightened and went in directly before the hatch was closed.
"I won't delay your business. I'll just sit here and wait for them to leave, then leave!" The pale boy rolled his eyes, then consciously went to the corner of the training cabin and squatted down.
Lu Tai glanced at the countdown on the hatch, which was gradually decreasing, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
[Host, be careful. This human is so strange and insists on staying with you.] 011 became alert. He still hadn't forgotten the bullying he'd received from those students before. [He definitely wants to let your guard down so he can bully you.]
In the plot, this is the situation the villain faces after arriving at the Imperial Military Academy.
Although most of them were raised in families that believed in elite education, there were also some who were disobedient, and naturally they could not catch up with Lu Tai, a seemingly ordinary C+ commoner.
All kinds of insults and bullying come quietly in the dark.
The ice between Lu Tai's eyebrows melted a little. He looked at the little panda and slightly raised the corners of his lips. He didn't even notice it. He just didn't say anything because there were outsiders here. He raised his fingertips and rubbed the tip of the little panda's ear.
Show through actions that you understand.
"Don't worry about your training, host. I'll secretly monitor his intentions and will definitely not let him hurt you." 011 looked at the poor little host and clenched his claws firmly.
He is responsible for protecting the host's safety!
Lu Tai smiled and patted the red panda's head again. When he came to his senses, he was stunned by the reflection of the bulkhead. He realized that he had been smiling more and more without realizing it. He lowered his voice while holding his weapon and said, "Okay, thank you Yaoyao for protecting me."
011 straightened his chest upon hearing this, and for a moment he felt taller than the host who was nearly two meters tall.
Seeing that the sparring partner was in place, the red panda stared closely at the human in the corner. The other person was squatting on the ground with his knees hugged. He seemed to be really scared and was trembling slightly.
011 looked at him like this for an hour, and began to wonder if he was overthinking it.
He turned around and looked in the direction of the host. The cold and gentle young man now tore off his usual weak and pitiful appearance and knocked down all the humanoid machines like a ferocious wolf.
Although he had suffered a lot of injuries, he became more and more courageous in the face of intensive attacks.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the host, 011 felt relieved and continued to stare at the pale boy in front of him. However, he did not move until the host finished and opened the hatch.
It's like just coming here to take refuge.
The red panda tilted its head, its two furry ears twitching with the movement. It then moved away from his back and looked at Lu Tai, who had just finished dealing with all the sparring partners. "Host, are you feeling unwell?"
[That human was weird. He actually just said thank you and left.]
011 suspected it was some conspiracy, but then he thought he was overthinking it. He was just an ordinary human being, and there was no need to be so wary of him.
"It's not just thank you." Because of the intense exercise, Lu Tai's voice was much deeper and hoarser than usual.
He was now covered in sweat. Knowing that the red panda liked to be clean, he didn't mind moving closer. He wiped the blood off his face with his pale fingertips. "I sensed his mental power. He took a hair from me."
Those people may not know that although his mental strength is only C, his acuity can reach A.
Probably to relax Lu Tai's vigilance, the person who came this time did not have high mental strength, so he easily noticed the little tricks this person did behind his back.
It's just not clear why they want his hair.
